Crossover Anime: The Bull Demon's Road to Conquest

But it's obvious which one is a rumor. Some well-informed ordinary people have already made their own judgments. In recent days, the incense in various temples and shrines has become increasingly prosperous.

Some exorcists who were already somewhat famous among the people started to have a surge in orders, but this was just the beginning. Most ordinary people had not directly encountered anything strange, but had only heard about it, so they were still skeptical.

However, as time goes on, more and more ordinary people are drawn into paranormal events, and the official explanations will become increasingly weak, eventually forcing them to admit it.

Even the most devoted gods at Inari Shrine, who used to stay at the shrine watching anime and playing otome games, have been affected. Most of the remaining gods have now retreated to Takamagahara.

Nowadays, there are very few gods left who remain in the secular world. The pervasive turbidity of the world will continue to corrupt the gods, eventually causing them to degenerate into evil gods, malevolent gods, or even bewildered and out-of-control monsters.

Even the spirit goddess Uka followed the instructions and warnings of her mother goddess and rarely left the shrine. However, Uka did not want to return to Takamagahara. Firstly, she found Takamagahara boring, and secondly, if she stayed in Takamagahara for too long, it would be difficult to leave again.

Secondly... to escape the male gods who were always trying to propose to her, which she loathed, Yu Jia chose to stay in the mortal world for a peaceful life. Moreover, in the mortal world, she could quickly buy the latest romance anime and otome games.

.

Although Uka is a resident of a shrine, the shrine still has the responsibility of protecting the local community. Moreover, many believers who have been harassed by strange occurrences have come to the shrine for help, so the offerings cannot be wasted.

The night was deep outside, but the shrine maidens dressed in red and white shrine maiden outfits had all been summoned by the appearing god. Among them was Shizuka Marikawa, who was leading Alice, who was also dressed in shrine maiden outfits and was like a curious child.

Although Shizuka and Alice both have contracts with demons and are genuine witches, the kind goddess Uga is willing to protect them from demon harassment.

However, Uka was unable to remove the bondage between them, so he could only prevent them from leaving the shrine. Later, he simply took the two women in as shrine maidens as well.

The tall and slender Uka, holding a gohei (a type of shrine maiden), solemnly addressed the priestesses: "Although modern society is not like ancient times, the duties of the gods have not changed. Believers worship the gods, and the gods should also do their utmost to protect the believers."

“From today onward, I will bestow divine power upon you, and you will take turns forming teams to clear away and drive away those ghosts that harass people at night. If you encounter a powerful monster, call upon me for help, and I will come to your rescue.”

After hesitating for a moment, a hint of worry appeared on Yujia's face, so she added, "Just stay around the shrine, don't go too far..."

However, this seemed unable to protect more people. But if the shrine maidens went too far away from the shrine, she might not be able to rescue them in time. For a moment, she couldn't help but hesitate.

After distributing the weapons and talismans he had made to the shrine maidens, and watching them file out with trepidation, Uka asked Shizuka and Alice to stay behind.

"Alice is still young, so she shouldn't get involved in dangerous activities. And Shizuka, if you leave the shrine, you might be targeted by demons. You and Alice should stay at the shrine, rest at night, and take over the duties of the other shrine maidens during the day."

Yu Jia's concern touched Shizuka deeply. However, firstly, everyone else was going on a dangerous mission while she was hiding in the shrine, which made her feel somewhat resentful. Secondly, besides feeling resentful, Shizuka also missed Niu Kun.

Slightly different from what she told Yu Jia, although Shizuka was indeed forced to become Niu Kun's witch, she... later developed a sense of belonging. In the days since she transmigrated, Shizuka couldn't help but miss Niu Kun at night.

However, Shizuka was too embarrassed to tell Yuka directly, so she could only use this as an excuse to sneak out and meet Niu Kun.

Although Alice is young, she is not completely ignorant. After all, Niu Kun did not hide anything from the little girl when he threw a big party in the ruins palace.

This made the little girl a bit precocious. At this moment, she couldn't help but ask to be with Shizuka, but both Uka and Shizuka rejected her. She could only sulk and secretly hope that she could grow up quickly.

Tokyo is bustling and lively during the day, and it's not much different at night, just with a different kind of liveliness. In fact, it can even evoke images of the legendary Heian-kyo (Night Parade of One Hundred Demons) in the legends.

A large-scale entertainment club.

Yes, such places are naturally filthy and corrupt, and therefore, it is inevitable that some ghosts and evil spirits will be produced or attracted.

With over an hour left before his transformation, Niu Kun, with Hei Yi and Yi slightly dressed up, arrived at the entertainment club.

Even after reverting to human form, Niu Kun's physique remained robust and imposing. He wore a designer suit, but the shirt was open and the suit jacket was casually unbuttoned.

He revealed a chest with muscles as strong as cowhide, and his appearance was not to be trifled with. With his hair tied up in a small braid, he looked like a ruthless gangster.

Even though they had makeup on, the two women, Hei Yi and Tsubasa, who were on either side of her, still lacked any air of worldliness and looked like innocent schoolgirls.

Moreover, they are both top-tier student girls with absolutely stunning looks and figures, the kind that make you want to exclaim "Wow!" at first glance. How could such wonderful girls have gone astray?!

At the entrance of the club, two fierce-looking, burly security guards couldn't help but feel a mixture of envy and pity. They envied Niu Kun, but felt sorry for the two girls—or rather, they felt sorry that the two girls weren't theirs.

After all, those who frequent such entertainment venues are obviously not good people; they are mostly gang members. Even if they haven't killed anyone, they have mostly been involved in fights, extortion, forcing women into prostitution, and other criminal activities.

Of course, Niu Kun seems to have even less right to say this. He has committed far more crimes than these gangsters, so there's no need for him to pretend to be a moral high-minded person and criticize these people.

The club is very large, divided into different areas. The spacious ballroom is noisy and chaotic and crowded with people. The private rooms are all making a ruckus, while upstairs there are quiet and comfortable high-end private rooms.

It caters to customers with all kinds of needs. Hei Yi and Yi, who were visiting this kind of place for the first time, seemed a little uncomfortable. They had never even been to a relatively clean KTV before.

After all, one is a pampered young lady pretending to be frail and sickly, while the other is playing the role of a well-behaved and sensible class monitor; naturally, they wouldn't come to a place like this.

As for Niu Kun... this was actually his first time here. In his previous life, he was a penniless shut-in, so how could he possibly go to a place like this? In this life, he had no chance, since he was dressed as a terrifying monster and obviously couldn't fool anyone.

but...

"Sure enough, there really are monsters disguised as vampires in this kind of place."

With a quick glance, Niu Kun noticed that the crowded and chaotic dance hall was filled with many supernatural creatures that could disguise themselves or possess people.

We didn't come to the wrong place.

Chapter 184 Melee (4k)

The noisy and chaotic dance hall, the deafening DJ, the colorful lights rolling incessantly, the scantily clad dancers on stage, and the men with all sorts of strange hairstyles, all contributed to the fiery atmosphere.

The men and women on the dance floor crowded together as if possessed, twisting their bodies to the loud music, amidst various acts of groping and lewdness, each one seemingly bewitched.

The booths were mostly filled with men looking for romance and women looking to hook up with rich men. However, regardless of gender, most of them were like wolves and tigers, or rotten fish meeting rotten shrimp. But there were also some eye-catching figures.

For example, Niu Kun, who walked in with two exceptionally pretty girls in his arms, easily attracted the attention of hungry wolves.

However, Niu Kun, who was over 1.9 meters tall, with muscles that made his suit look like it was about to burst, and a face that looked like he was not someone to be trifled with, was clearly not a weak or easily bullied character.

This was only because Niu Kun completely concealed his demonic aura and disguised himself as an ordinary person; otherwise, the invisible aura emanating from Niu Kun alone would have been enough to silence the entire noisy dance hall.

Having found an empty booth, Niu Kun figured he still had an hour left before transforming, so he wasn't in a hurry to cause trouble. His human transformation technique could be upgraded, and once it reached the top level, he could probably maintain it for as long as he wanted.

A waiter in a vest and shirt approached, and Niu Kun casually... mainly because he didn't know much about food and drink, he ordered the drinks and platter recommended by the waiter.

After the waiter left, Niu Kun heard Hei Yi, who was clinging to his arm, complain, "I should have brought Yuno with you. This kind of dance hall is really terrible."

“Yuno is too young to come to a place like this.”

Niu Kun's somewhat perfunctory explanation, however...

Hitagi couldn't help but roll her eyes, replying irritably, "You know Yuno is young? Well, you still... you know... you know... Yuno, didn't you?"

On the other side, Yi seemed quite interested, tightly holding Niu Kun's other arm, his eyes sweeping across the flickering light in the dance hall and the gazes that were openly and secretly watching.

"Master, you...you wouldn't be thinking of...what's that saying again, um, you're thinking of...a plot where someone pretends to be weak to fool others, and then gets slapped in the face?"

Yi turned around, a slight smile playing on his lips, and looked at Niu Kun with a hint of amusement.

"What? Is that not allowed?"

Niu Kun didn't deny it; instead, he nodded even more smugly: "That's right. I originally wanted to bring Qiu along, but Qiu wasn't too keen, and besides, Qiu is too mature, unlike the two of you..."

“Unlike the two of us, who look like high school students, we were probably tricked into coming here as naive girls. This makes it seem like you, Master, aren’t actually that great.”

Yi easily guessed Niu Kun's thoughts, since Niu Kun didn't try to hide them.

"Tch~ Boring."

Although Hei Yi said she was bored, she didn't let go of Niu Kun's arm. Instead, she rested her head on Niu Kun's shoulder, looking like a docile little bird.

In a dark corner, a man and a woman were embracing each other tightly. Suddenly, the woman trembled slightly, as if... she had reached orgasm.

A moment later, after the woman's body had completely relaxed, the man holding her raised his head, revealing a pair of eyes that were particularly scarlet in the dim light, four sharp teeth, and lips that were still dripping blood.

Everything indicated his identity: a vampire. And this vampire was eating, though he didn't seem very satisfied with the 'food' in his arms.

"This kind of shoddy blood is really hard to drink, and you can't even drink your fill of it at once."

Muttering a complaint under his breath, the vampire released the limp woman, letting her slide into the corner. He hadn't killed her; a dead woman would attract the police's attention.

As an ordinary vampire roaming in the shadows, he cannot ignore the threats from the authorities and can only choose to be cautious. A woman who has been bitten by him once will only be unconscious for one night.

By tomorrow morning, the teeth marks on the woman's neck will be less noticeable, and she will only feel groggy, thinking it's just a hangover, and she will recover in about a week.

However, if you are repeatedly bitten by vampires, you will inevitably become a blood slave, and may even mutate into a ghoul.

But that wasn't what the vampire cared about. Still hungry, he was looking for his next target in the nightclub. Soon, his eyes lit up when he saw a girl who had come in alone.

With long, golden hair cascading down her shoulders, and a delicate and beautiful appearance, she appeared to be between middle and high school age. Her noble and proud demeanor seemed out of place in the atmosphere of the surrounding dance hall.

Like a young lady who had wandered into this place by mistake, her bright eyes glanced around with a hint of arrogance. She seemed to have already made an appointment and was looking for her target as she walked around the dance floor.

Clang~

The man, who was suddenly thrown out of the booth, almost bumped into the blonde girl. His eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of murderous intent brewed. He glanced at the booth and saw a tall, burly man with a sinister look on his face grabbing another thug with tattoos on his face and throwing him out again.

A flicker of surprise crossed the blonde girl's eyes. She instinctively felt a fear rising within her for no apparent reason. Even in the briefest moment their eyes met, the blonde girl involuntarily looked away.

The man before me... is definitely not simple.

Niu Kun raised an eyebrow. He really hadn't expected to meet such a beautiful young lady in a place like this. Before Niu Kun could even start a conversation, she turned her head away, walked past the thug who was lying on the ground groaning in pain, and continued walking forward.

Soon, several waiters gathered around and were immediately subjected to a barrage of arrogant reprimands from Niu Kun, just like a boss scolding his employees. Even when the manager came over, he didn't dare to say much, but simply dragged the two thugs who had been beaten up away.

This little incident didn't affect the blonde girl. She found the people waiting for her: a capable woman with long black hair and glasses, and a man with a scar on his face who looked weak and as if he hadn't recovered from a serious injury.

The capable woman exchanged a few pleasantries with the blonde girl, but for some reason, her gaze couldn't help but linger on the tall, muscular man who was scolding the waiter. It seemed... strangely familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere before.

"Greetings, Mr. Inunaki, Ms. Ken. I am Shizuru Imano, the next leader of the Cursed Path. I didn't expect you to meet me in a place like this, but none of that matters. What matters is... are you sure you really have information about the Sessho-seki?"

After the blonde girl sat down, she gave a brief self-introduction and then got straight to the point.

"Of course, and it's very clear news."

The disguised Sword Light Princess solemnly affirmed that she really had no other choice. Her long-established stronghold had been taken over by the enemy, and her former companions had been forced to submit to that terrible enemy.

However, she also faces the pursuit of the enemy's henchmen and is nearly captured several times. Fortunately, Shinichiro Inunaki rescues her at the cost of his life, but Shinichiro Inunaki is also seriously injured.

Without a stable base, healing became a major problem. To make matters worse, Dr. Mochizuki, who had been hiding, mysteriously disappeared. After much inquiry and investigation, it was barely confirmed that he had been taken away by a powerful organization called God Hunting.

The situation seemed to be getting worse and worse, and Kenshin was almost in despair. In this situation, Inunaki, who had unexpectedly obtained a Sesshōseki, learned that a transnational arms smuggling organization, which was also a mysterious faction called the Cursed Path, was also searching for the Sesshōseki.

Therefore, in urgent need of a place to hide and support, they chose to use the news of the Killing Stone to contact the Cursed Path, which had recently re-entered Japan. However, they did not expect that the other party would send their leader's daughter, the next leader, Imano Shizuru, to make contact.

That's fine, though, as it prevents the other party from being unable to make a decision. However, the girl in front of me, Shizuru Imawano, is not an ignorant girl who can be easily fooled.

Just as the two sides were about to continue their negotiations after a moment of silence, Kenshin and Inunaki, who had deliberately chosen this angle to sit, looked almost simultaneously toward the entrance to the ballroom.

Under the lamplight, two red-haired women, wearing red plaid trench coats, walked in, but...

"Well, I knew it. If those women are here, then the master must be here too."

With an excited expression, Xin looked at the big dog as if it had found its owner, and couldn't wait to run to its owner's side.

"If you don't want to be scolded by your master, you'd better behave and finish the mission first. The target has been on the run for too long. If it gets caught by other witches, we'll lose all face with the syringe."

Kaoru, who managed to remain calm, gave Xin a low reprimand, then met the gaze of the sword-wielding princess who was looking at her, and coldly reached out and clenched her fist towards her.

It seems to be saying, "You can't escape this time."

"Your enemy?"

Shizuru Imano asked curiously, and then saw Kenshin take a deep breath, nod heavily, kick the table in front of her away, and pick up the bag that was originally at her feet.

In the noisy and chaotic dance hall, most people were unaware of the danger at first, but Xun and Xin, who were eager to put on a good performance in front of their host, did not care at all whether they might hurt innocent people.

Or rather, in their eyes, there was no such thing as innocence or not; once they put on the black and white demon masks, they became ruthless killers.

forward

The incredibly sharp fists and claws tore the drug addict, who was dazed and blocking the way, to shreds of flesh and blood, spraying onto the others around them.

The man and woman, their minds a jumbled mess, touched the blood and flesh splattered on their faces with dazed eyes, but in the flickering light, they were still not fully awake.

Only the waiters, who had neither been drinking nor on drugs and had to keep a close eye on taking orders, witnessed such a horrifying scene.

A terrified scream rang out, but Kaoru and Kaoru had already crossed the distance and rushed directly to the front of Kenshin and Inunaki. What greeted the two sisters were two submachine guns and a large-caliber pistol.

Da da da~~

The continuous gunfire, mixed with the ear-piercing rock DJ music, made most people on the dance floor think it was some new trick in the dance hall. Only a few people who were close by could see the sudden outbreak of a gunfight.

No... it's not just a gunfight.

The inhuman Kaoru and Kaoru, completely unafraid of gunfire, barged straight into the booth. The sound of the booth collapsing and shattering was enough to make one's teeth ache, and crackling lightning flashed. Sword Princess and Inunaki Shinichiro rushed out from the left and right respectively, but they didn't care about anything else.

"Damn it..."

Having barely escaped being accidentally injured, Shizuru Imano was filled with rage and wanted to summon her spirit beast to kill the two insane bastards.

However, Kaoru and Kaoru, who had just destroyed the booth, chased after Kenshin and Inunaki respectively. This made Shizuru, who was in a somewhat disheveled state, hesitate for a moment. Instead of summoning her spirit beast in public, she used a communicator to call out to her subordinates who were stationed outside.

However, a fierce fight was also taking place outside the club.

The club's own security guards, gangsters from the nearby streets, police officers on patrol, members of the Cursed Path who came with Shizuru, mercenaries covering Kenshin and Inunaki, and syringe-wielding militants who came with the Kaoru sisters.
